Swansea City delivered a commanding performance with a 4-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers in the English Championship, bolstered by South Korean winger Eom Ji-sung’s third assist of the season. The match took place at the Swansea.com Stadium, where Eom played a pivotal role in maintaining his team’s momentum.
Eom, who completed the full 90 minutes on the field, showcased his skill with a clever no-look pass in the 59th minute. This play allowed teammate Ross Stewart to break into the penalty area and score with an impressive first-time finish, marking Eom’s third assist in just 10 league appearances this season. This assist was particularly notable as it was Eom’s first direct contribution since returning to Swansea after aiding South Korea in securing a gold medal at the 2026 Asian Games.
The scoring for Swansea began early, with Stephen Eustaquio finding the net in the 11th minute. The team extended their lead before halftime with goals from Jeppe Okkels and Philip Billing, bringing the score to 3-0. Stewart’s goal in the second half sealed the dominant win for Swansea.
